Research Interests
My main research interests include combinations of the following topics: 1) multimessenger
and time-domain high-energy astrophysics 2) polarimetric studies of high-energy astrophysical
sources and 3) advanced machine learning techniques for data analysis and/or data
reconstruction.
Involvement in current and future space-based missions:
Currently running and selected:
- Fermi (High-energy gamma-ray monitor)
- IXPE (Soft X-ray imager and polarimeter)
- COSI (Medium-energy gamma-ray imager and spectrometer)
- CALET (Cosmic rays and gamma-ray monitor)
Future concepts:
- AMEGO-X (Medium-energy gamma-ray -- NASA MIDEX)
- AXIS (X-ray imager -- NASA Probe)
- GOSoX (X-ray polarimeter -- NASA Pioneer)
